Netflix Limited Series: HALSTON
/“I have a vision. I’m going to change the face of American fashion… I’ve been an outsider my entire life until one day I stopped giving a flying fuck…” Ewan McGregor as Halston. It’s clear to see why the Halston family has issues over the Ryan Murphy produced Netflix series which premieres on May 14. The HALSTON Archives and Family released a statement, see below. And will that stop us from watching the Netflix series? Hell no!
Roy Halston Frowick, 1988
The HALSTON Archives and Family were not consulted on the upcoming Netflix series involving an inaccurate, fictionalized account of famed fashion designer, "Halston." The HALSTON Archives remains the only definitive and comprehensive source on the man and his legacy as the personally appointed custodian of his private papers and effects.
The HALSTON Archives travels the world to bring the meticulous history and original design work of Halston to reputable venues with comprehensive exhibits and seminars. Following in the steps of Halston's generosity while living, his family will be adding an initiative to the HALSTON Archives that will partner with select non-profit organizations and institutions to establish fashion scholarships in Halston's name as a way to inspire and empower the next generation of American Fashion Designers.
In addition to this exciting resource, The HALSTON Archives will be launching a non-profit limited, self-sustaining and iconic product line based on original artwork that will fund the scholarship program and continuity of the Archives with the goal of ensuring the HALSTON legacy lives on in future generations of Fashion students.
HALSTON, starring Ewan McGregor, is the untold story of the meteoric rise and fall of the first American celebrity fashion designer.

First Lady Michelle Obama in Jason Wu Inauguration 2013

Once again, our First Lady,
Michelle Obama
proved her allegiance to American fashion and good style.
The FLOTUS Inauguration Day look was a beautifully tailored coat and dress, by one of my favs,
Thom Browne
. She looked amazing; like a woman who knows what she likes and knows how to dress.
The big surprise came at the big reveal during the first dance with President Obama. [Thanks to the media] everyone was expecting the First Lady to be wearing a new, up & coming designer. Not the case.
She once again turned to
Jason Wu
, but this time, she left the princess, dreamy behind and instead brought on the sex appeal. The ruby red chiffon gown was understated. It was Michelle Obama who made the dress spectacular with her chic and sophistication. Perfect hair, perfect make-up and what about those amazing shoulders and arms! WOW! Gorgeous.
To complete the perfect look, Michelle Obama wore
Jimmy Choo
on her feet and a
Kimberly MacDonald
ring on her finger.
